I don't think the skirmish with Hwa Ryun fits here. It was not a fight, not even a skirmish in my book, it was nothing. Aguero was emotionally shocked and didn't even try to go any further except his one attempt to punch her. I don't see how this can be described as underwhelming, when practically nothing happened combat wise.

But I get your point regarding Chang. We know jack shit about the fight. It's really up to everybody's interpretation about their conversation. In my opinion, there is no doubt about it. Everything implies that Aguero got rid of Chang's right eye. For all we know, Aguero most likely did this "fair and square", since Chang remained silent when Aguero brought this up and said that Chang can't beat him in a real fight. If it was some cheap trick or something Aguero couldn't pull off under normal circumstances, Chang surely would have mentioned it instead of keeping his mouth shut.

We shouldn't also forget that Chang proposed a fight against Baam in order to win the 28th floor exam, which he didn't against Aguero. Since they fought before, I would assume that Chang knows Aguero's capabilities good enough to not ask for a one on one. Everything points to Aguero > Chang, whereas nothing implies the other way around. But yeah, it's nowhere near a fact.

Koon's abilities are most likely there with the top 5 E-regulars. Chang himself knew he couldn't kill Koon and chose not to follow. The fact that Ran chooses to follow Koon means something too.
Koon himself likes to give orders, he's good at coming up with strategies and ideas, he enjoys bossing people around.

Chapter was great! It's nice to see what happens when Baam uses the thorn. Iti seems it's activated to the amount of Shinsoo Baam uses. Also it mixes with his own Shinsoo turning it purple, it also changes the shape of the blast. Baam himself Shinsoo attacks are powerful now with the thorn he's haxed. Not only does the thron increase his bangs but it should also increase his speed, strength and all other aspects of himself. Also he should be able to ignite it.

I think their interaction was more telling than that. In that moment, Koon thought that Hwa Ryun was responsible for what happened to Baam and he had every intention to hurt her, the fact that his hand was bleeding afterwards suggests that he wasn't trying to throw some light punch either, yet Hwa Ryun barely flinched. Initially I dismissed it thinking that Hwa Ryun was either a higher floor regular or at least someone who is beyond the abilities of the regulars on that floor yet the recent chapters makes that doubtful somewhat.

Well Chang had every intention to fight even after seeing Koon, he only backed down after being reminded about his eye so it may not be as clear-cut as Koon>Chang, maybe Chang has a particular weakness which Koon knows about? Who knows, Koon's strength is still a mystery and there isn't a whole lot we can speculate on, we'll have to wait until he has a proper fight with a strong opponent.

Because Androssi is not a chosen Princess yet. She needs to become a Ranker to be considered one. And even then, her chances at receiving one are slim, since the 13 Month Series are obviously limited, while the number of Princesses aren't fixed (well, that's my guess).

Most of the 13 Month Series are already in possession of a Princess. The White February and the Rainbow Undecimber (it's not even a weapon but an arms inventory) are the only 13 Month Series stated to be without an owner. The status of the Dark September is unknown, so it's possible that a Princess is already in possession of it or it's also without an owner. The Colorless December was sealed.

The last bit really amp things up! I register here just to post my view on it xD

I doubt it was Wangnan that got stabbed by Beta, Aguero's observer is following him, and we all know observer is capable of producing hologram =D I mean, surely Aguero would have foresaw Beta's interference, or at the very least have made precautions to protect Wangnan, right?

Here's hoping the next chapter starts with Wangnan disappearing like a hologram is supposed to ...doesn't explain the blood though. Can't wait for the next chapter!
